Sadness

Emma and the rest of our family lost her Grandma Great today. Francis Humes was Nana's mom and Todd's maternal grandmother. Emma was a little cautious of the oxygen and other medical supplies, but would often ask to see her grandma with the crazy dog.

Emma has been so fortunate to know so many great grandparents. We will cherish the few photographs of her and her Grandma Great.

a clean room

Today I finished unpacking Emma's new room at our new house. This has been a hectic but exciting time. Emma has been enjoying her new big girl bed that Aunt Betsy and Uncle AJ put together. She has even slept in said bed almost every night since! We have had many people stop by already.

Balloons, dirt, and ice skates

Today Emma got a guitar from Papa. She was QUITE thrilled. She strummed her "tar" enthusiastically the whole way home. By the end of the night, Emma performed a song for Aunt Jill and Grandpa. For Aunt Jill... a song about dirt. the chorus seemed to have went "I don't know, I don't know, I don't know." Grandpa's ice skating song was hard to follow, but she was just as passionate in her performance!

Play date

We officially have the perfect "family" friends. Tonight consisted of the Daddies fixing the car, the girls watching movies and drawing with chalk, and the Mommies chatting and drinking wine. Nemo and Pooh... tubby timme... and plans for a sleepover.

I can sense that Emma is getting to know her first forever friend. It was a great night for all!
